i am changing the brake pads on my 400ex 99'. I can not get the piston to move back so i can get the pads on and then put it on the rotor. I drained the brake fluid but i dont kno what im doing. i can not get the piston in the cailper to move back by pushing it. Can someone please help me fast! i am going riding soon!

Thank you soo much:confused:

Dude, I hope you didnt drain the brake fluid because you couldnt get the piston to move... All you need is a C-clamp and youll be golden. A pliers, or pushing it by hand usually wont cut it. Now you have to fill your brake fluid back up and bleed it off which is a pain. Good luck...
